Both the SoftLocker Client and all locked files now support automatic proxy detection.

The proxy settings for the client can be accessed from the File menu. The proxy settings for locked files can be accessed via the "Settings" button on the registration screen.

Proxies can also be configured manually through the settings window.

This means that if your user is using a proxy that does not allow connections over port 80, it will be automatically detected and the correct proxy settings will be used instead of the user encountering an error message when entering their registration code.

Version 2.3 Installer Rebuilt

We have rebuilt the installer because some AntiVirus programs were incorrectly detecting a file named "Bouncer4.exe" as a trojan.

Because that file is no longer even used by SoftLocker we have simply replaced it with a blank file. That will ensure that locked files are no longer causing false positives.

We have also corrected a bug in the Wizard which causes error if no demo type is selected.

Version 2.2

-Updated the new user form to disallow spaces

-Removed the file Bouncer4.exe from the install package: it was and outdated file that was no longer used and was causing a false positive trojan report on some antivirus products. It has been replaced by an empty file.

Version 2.1

-Fixed a bug that could cause usage demos with more than one use to not expire properly

-Fixed a bug that caused demos based on days to last one day longer than expected.

-Fixed a bug that caused the windows task bar to disappear briefly when the "Would you like to register now?" window is shown.

Version 2.0

-Created file format guide that shows what file types are compatible with softlocker.

-Added file format feedback when choosing a file to lock, which provides information about that file type and how it interacts with SoftLocker.
